The Penguins traded left wing Anthony Beauvillier to the Capitals today for a second-round pick (!) in the 2025 Entry Draft.
A very nice return for a 27-year-old forward who was signed last off-season with relatively low expectations. One who I thought performed admirably during his 63 games sporting the black and gold, as his 13 goals, 20 points and minus-1 on a heavily minus team will attest.
IMHO, he proved to be a most pleasant surprise on a team that featured precious few, not to mention being one of Dubas’s better signings.
In addition to his boxcars, decent for a player of his ilk, Beauvillier busted his tail and played a sound two-way game, while slotting effectively up and down the lineup.
